The Dunny action figure witch is made of soft, smooth vinyl, was conceived and designed by Kidrobot toy designer Tristan Eaton and owner/President Paul Budnitz to be a “toy with attitude”. The original idea was a toy that could be customized in a broad variety of styles by diverse artists working in different mediums.
The Dunny Show
In 2004, 50 artists (including Shepard Fairey) were given a 20in dunny figure to make into a fineart piece for the art exhibit The Dunny Show.

In 2005 Kidrobot released a line of miniature dunny toys called the LA Dunny.
Each dunny was designed by a different artist.
Only 3% of these dunnys were ones designed by Shepard Fairey.
Obey Giant.com sold signed versions on their site. (only the boxes were signed). Originally 100 dunnys were promised to Obey, but due to a misunderstanding, they only received 25. Because of this, the dunnys were not shipped for months after they were ordered.
- Signed edition included apology letter, stickers, magnet and miniature Obey Giant poster
